Carter said the Cowboys have nothing to play for after going 1-5 with Monday night’s loss to Giants and losing QB Tony Romo (broken collarbone) for two months and possibly the season in the process.

“They don’t have anything they can really put their hat on as far as a team, so trying to recover, what are they going to do?” Carter said.

Jackson pointed out that the Cowboys were awful even before Romo got hurt.

“The thing that they can’t do is use Romo’s injury as an excuse for what’s going to happen from here on out. They were 1-4 with Romo in the lineup.”

Johnson kept it short and sour.

“I say they’re cooked. This team may just win two games,” Johnson said.

Ditka also put the Cowboys in an early grave.

“If they’re not toast, they’re pretty well charred,” Ditka said. “…I didn’t know Jon Kitna was still playing football. I really didn’t…Not that he can’t play, but it’s going to take a big effort to rally around him.”

Berman sounded a familiar note when he suggested the Cowboys quit against the Giants after Romo got hurt.

“The lack of spirit from the players when Romo was hurt and rolling there in a game that was still up for grabs on Monday night was appalling,” Berman said.
